Vista always wants my password.

Hi,

I have got windows vista, everytime I connect to the internet I have to put in my password.
Can anyone tell me how to the change settings so I just double click on the desk icon.

Thanks

    there is usually a tick box to save the pwd, what icon are you clicking on?

    A cheap router would solve the problem, and give you added protection from hackers. Not essential, but worth considering, especially if you have more than 1 pc.
